You are FAST Ted! 
I just barely posted it!
I have been told NO special paint schemes, including bumble bee. (It seems to have a love/hate response from railroaders, no in-between!)
Jeff Ellingson promises a spectacular new paint job on the 473 as she comes out from her 1472 day inspection in the next couple of weeks! If we can wait to use her, maybe she will be unveiled during Railfest. We will not have 2 K28s though so the double header will either be K28 and K36 or 2 k36s.
I took this photo in Sept. 2011 on the mini highline.
